Belief systems are a bit forced upon family. Yet ultimately it is up to the individual to determine what they believe. My family for example: Family of 6,3 guys, 3 girls. Parents were Episcopalian Christians and as such me,my brother and my 2 sisters all had to go to church. We weren't given a choice on it. Yet now I'm an atheist, my brother jewish, one of my sisters is pagan/her own belief and the other a mix of all I think, while the parents stayed Christian. I feel bad for those whose families were not accepting though. We all were forced into Christian belief, yet all came out of it. Ultimately it is up to tbe individual, but perhaps some protection does need to be in place. I doubt it would work or even have a chance of being supported, but what I think would be fair to the children themselves is to forbid religious exposure until a certain age,then introduce them to the world of it,and let them make their own choice. Parents would most likely scream bloody murder,and it'd be understandable. It is often taken that children can't make decisions for themselves,and I think this would probably fall under that category too at the same time as above. I mean, a child of a divorced family cant decide who they want to live with until theyre 14, and at 16 can only get married with parental consent.(At least here.) It does feel trickery and perhaps impossible to balance the child's right to believe what they want, free of their parents, with a parents right to raise their children. I really don't know. Not quite a fun thing either way.
